Would be (almost) enough for me. My commute is around 7 miles each way, but 
getting to work does involve going up a significant hill, and some other 
undulations. There is a slightly more indirect route with easier grade than 
the 20-30% that I normally take, which would ease the load on the motor, and 
probably add only about 1/2 mile, but I still think I would like a rooftop 
of solar cells to provide a topup while parked during the day.
